The term 'aeration' will change to include its equally important counterpart, circulation, predicts a leading aquaculture consultant in Hawaii. His years of experience include extensive to intensive cultivation of many species: P. vannamei, P. strylirostris and P. monodon shrimp; freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii; oysters; and both freshwater and saltwater fish. 'Destratification of temperature and oxygen is why I use aeration and the AIRE-O2® aerator is the best.'

Comparing the AIRE-O2® aerator with the Taiwan paddlewheel, he added, 'For about the same price, I can have an AIRE-O2® unit that will run much longer, trouble-free hours and do a better job. Every other aerator I have ever used is now in a junk pile, while every AIRE-O2® unit I have ever used is currently in operation today!' For more information, contact Aeration Industries Int’l.

' I’m glad to see Aeration Industries working with the small aquaculture companies and supplying us with a cost effective and superior product, both in performance and materials,' reported the consultant.

The Problem: A large vegetable processing facility was experiencing problems with its lagoon surface aerators. The company’s treatment process includes a collection and screening assembly, two anaerobic stabilization ponds and a 40 million gallon aerated lagoon. The aeration lagoon is used for BOD reduction and polishing before the water is discharged to a near-by creek. Several surface aerators had been used to provide the oxygen in the aeration lagoon. However, the surface aerators were beginning to fail...

The Problem: The treated effluent from all wastewater treatment plants across the country must meet local dissolved oxygen (DO) limits before discharging into receiving waters. A new municipal WWTP in southern Mississippi, designed by Carollo Engineers, has a pressurized effluent line to discharge into a local river. Since the line is pressurized, the standard method for increasing DO, a cascade (aka waterfall), was not a valid option.The Solution: The engineer chose a Mazzei Injector aeration system for maximum...
